This was a very good book. It is about a girl who finds out that she is related to (and is a reincarnation of) the real Juliet from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. She then embarks on a journey to Italy, where she must find her mother's "treasure" and break the curse on both her own (and Romeo's) houses. The book is filled with suspense, love and betrayal. I highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of Shakespeare, as each chapter begins with a quote from his iconic play. Although it is a lengthy book, Fortier makes up for the length with content. I really enjoyed this book, although younger readers may not. The writing is fluid and descriptive. You will absolutely fall in love with this book.
